Explanation:

It is known that electric field is responsible for creating electric potential. As a result, it depends only on the electric field and not on the magnitude of charge.

So, when a charge is increased by a factor of 2 then electric potential will remain the same. Since, expression to calculate the electric potential is as follows.

U = qV

Since, the electric potential is directly proportional to the charge. Hence, when 0.2 $\mu C$ tends to replaced by 0.4 $\mu C$ then charge is increased by a factor of 2. Hence, the electric potential energy is doubled.

Thus, we can conclude that if that charge is replaced by a +0.4 µC charge then electric potential stays the same, but the electric potential energy doubles.

In creating his definition of horsepower, James Watt, the inventor of the steam engine, calculated the power output of a horse o

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

Part a)

$F = 182.3 Lb$

Part b)

$P = 0.55 HP$

Explanation:

Diameter of the circle = 24 ft

Diameter = 731.52 cm = 7.3152 m

now the horse complete 144 trips in one hour

so time to complete one trip is given as

$t = \frac{3600}{144} s$

$t = 25 s$

now the speed of the horse is given as

$v = \frac{2\pi r}{t}$

$v = \frac{\pi(7.3152)}{25}$

$v = 0.92 m/s$

Part a)

Now we know that the power is defined as rate of work done

it is given as

$P = F v$

$746 = F(0.92)$

$F = 810.9 N$

$F = 182.3 Lb$

Part b)

Work done to climb up to 3 m height is given by

$W = mgh$

now we have

$Power = \frac{Work}{time}$

$P = \frac{mgh}{t}$

$P = \frac{(70kg)(9.81)(3)}{5.0s}$

$P = 412.02 Watt$

now we know that 1 HP = 746 Watt

so we have

$P = \frac{412}{746} = 0.55 HP$

You normally drive a 12-h trip at an average speed of 100 km/h . Today you are in a hurry. During the first two-thirds of the di

kherson [118]

Answer:

78 km/h

Explanation:

If I normally drive a 12 hour trip at an average speed of 100 km/h, my destination has a total distance of:

100 km/h · 12 h = 1,200 km

Today, I drive the first 2/3 of the distance at 116 km/h. Let's first calculate what 2/3 of the normal distance is.

1,200 * 2/3 = 800 km

I've driven 800 km already. I need to drive 400 km more to reach my final destination. I need to figure out my average speed during this last 1/3 of the distance.

To do this, I first need to calculate how much time I spent driving 116 km/h for the past 800 km.

116 km/1 h = 800 km/? h
800 = 116 · ?
? = 800/116
? = 6.89655172

I spent 6.89655172 hours driving during the first 2/3 of the distance.

Now, I need to subtract this value from 12 hours to find the remaining time I have left.

12 h - 6.89655172 h = 5.10344828 h

Using this remaining time and my remaining distance, I can calculate my average speed.

? km/1 hr = 400 km/5.10344828 h
5.10344828 · ? = 400
? = 400/5.10344828
? = 78.3783783148

My average speed during the last third of the distance is around 78 km/h.
